Setting a Standard Since 2003
The Trojan Academic Advising and Support Center coordinates the AAGS Degree and is dedicated to continually assessing the program to optimize its benefit for the students that it was designed to serve. Although the 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Core Curriculum has been the foundation of the AAGS since Fall 2003, it was not until the passage of ACT 182 in 2009, that Arkansas set a University’s core curriculum requirements, as the required foundation courses for the designated transfer degree.
